      TBH, the name of those teeth made it very understandable why he didn't want to be touched in that area. The casual "those too" would have had me spitting out my drink if I'd just taken a sip, though.

    I do wish people would learn the basics if not everything they can about an animal before they get one. You did another excellent job being patient & using your experience to get that heavy fleece off of him. I’m certain he feels so much better. That spitting was nasty 🤢 😂

    • @ImOnAJourney
      @ImOnAJourney Před 14 dny +12

      The spitting is a defense mechanism - he wasn’t sure what was happening, but an unknown was in his space and he wasn’t in charge - he didn’t like that so he gave you his last warning to get off! 😂😂
      The next time you pull up in the yard, he and his lady will fight over who gets to go first!!

    Once while driving through New Mexico on vacation, I stopped at a house out in the middle of nowhere to ask for directions. Nobody was home, but a dog came around the side of the house. It was very hot outside, and this poor dog had a LOT of shed hair that hadn't fallen off and was just acting to hold in heat. I spent an hour and a half sitting in a driveway, pulling and brushing hair off of that dog. Didn’t get to my camping spot til well after dark, but helping that poor dog was the best part of that vacation.

  • @benbrown8258
    @benbrown8258 Před 14 dny +11

    Whether animal or plant, when "we" "domesticate" them it is a mutual contract of relationship. You [llama, dog, blueberry bush, flax, maple tree, etc] will become less able to care for yourself but provide a divided end mutually beneficial if we, man, care for you. Breaking that contract isn't just injurious to the animal, plant or ecosystem, its destructive to our spirit and soul. Ignorance with concern might be recoverable, but a broken relationship requires effort to recover. To open to learning and humility goes a long way. Thank you for educating us and setting an example...

    "Wow, what an incredible transformation! Watching the heavy layers being cut from the overgrown llama was both satisfying and heartwarming. It's clear that the llama's well-being was the top priority throughout the grooming process, and the skill and care of the groomer were truly impressive. Seeing the llama's lighter, refreshed appearance after the grooming session is a testament to the importance of regular grooming for our furry friends. Thank you for sharing this heartwarming and educational video!"

      @raraavis7782 Před 10 dny +2

      @@chronically_kyra
      Yeah, I was literally wondering about that, too. I guess, the thick coat is so insulating, it doesn't let the outside heat in? So if the sheep moves very little and can dissipate extra body heat through panting, it might survive in the shadow. Especially with access to cool water.
      I don't know. I would actually love a biologists or vets perspective on this, as it seems quite remarkable.

    • @swissmaid
      @swissmaid Před 4 dny

      Yes 5 winter coats, but also the pulling on his skin whenever he moves! Like sitting on pins, hence the "stripes" on his body.

    He must have been so confused what was going on. Some loud sharp thing behind him, his fleece being moved around and pulled off, and then the air he would only feel on his face now all over his body. Also his pair must have got a cold shock from a breeze like a cold shower after so long under the mats.

    I so appreciate the care you take with each animal, recognizing that they are sentient beings who don't understand our spoken language. I've seen so many people mistreat animals who are not misbehaving, they just don't understand. What a nice thing for this boy to be rid of all that hair!!!

    Lady. I respect a hard worker. There was a lady I did tobacco farming with. She was beyond tough. A freaking grinder. Now matter how hot or hard she worked with us. Loved her very much.

    As someone who has professionally clipped horses for 30 years, mad respect for a job well done. I've always felt that you're only as good as your tools and having blades that will cut through that mess is essential. Again, mad respect for handling as well. Doesn't pay to fight an animal who's stronger than oneself.

    What a lovely birthday gift! Watching my two favourite shearers working hard to help poor animals in need.

    That poor guy. So glad you were able to help him. You do great work and bless your heart. It’s obvious that you have a great love for what you do and the animals you help.
